My dad (who's in government) knows someone from UPSC whom he called today. That guy talked with the concerned person and mentioned that results will come next week.

So don't think too much about it guys. Aa jaayega jab aana Hoga.

@ChampakAspirants ko final letter hi aya tha whether they are eligible or not under EWS. People who couldn't give certificate and not get gen cutoff marks in pre, were rejected and order was final as per mail.

@zombielandI'd like to present a different viewpoint. The nature of questions that upsc is asking in mains often means that no one is sure what constitutes a "top answer" in terms of content richness and relevance. Further, 7 papers means a lot of subjectivity can creep in at every stage.

As for the optionals, the logic that those who get 300+ know after the paper that their papers went well is also questionable atleast for the humanities subjects. For example - in my optional sociology - several questions in paper 2 were out of syllabus like interlinking of rivers, global warming, demonetization etc. Even those who do get 300+ this year, wouldn't be sure how to answer such questions.

So yes, after a certain point, i do believe even toppers don't know what to expect.
